You enter a hall full of all of your favorite things.\xa0 The old knight of the Crusade beckons you to him.\xa0 "Among you are the greatest delights known to humanity.\xa0 You may engage in whip-cracking tricks to earn them.\xa0 Or, I can give you one every now and again.\xa0 You must choose...but choose wisely."\xa0 And in that moment, you realize: you should have listened to that episode of ABA Inside Track about whether humans prefer contingencies.\xa0 Suddenly, you awaken in a cold sweat and look at the calendar.\xa0 "Oh, thank Skinner," you gasp.\xa0 "It's only the preview episode! There's still time to subscribe!" Then, with visions of Diana, Jackie, and Rob podcasting in your head, you slip off, back to dreamland.\xa0
